After complimenting the BTS star on his outfit choice, Gosling went on to reveal he’s going to gift him Ken’s guitar from Barbie.
"There’s an unspoken Ken code that if you bite another Ken’s style you have to give them your most prized possession," he remarked. "So, I hope you’ll accept Ken’s guitar as my humble offering.
"Besides, Ken doesn’t really play anyway, so it’ll be much better in your hands."
